The General is Pregnant: His Majesty Abstinence and Sexual Devotion Every Night

Chapter 328 Next Plan

Qi Yunjin listened to Gu Junqing's incoherent answer, the corner of his mouth twitched, but he didn't say anything more. Seeing her standing there, his eyes flashed slightly, and then he stood up from the couch, paced back and forth for a long time, looking like he was thinking about something, and then slowly walked to Gu Junqing who had been watching his actions, and saw the surprise and confusion in her eyes.

He smiled faintly and said, "If I say that I asked you to come to the palace just to see how you are doing now, would General Gu be willing to believe it?"

The confusion in Gu Junqing's eyes became more obvious. She did not ask directly, but asked tactfully: "In this case, does the emperor have anything else to ask? I will answer them one by one for you."

Qi Yunjin had known for a long time that this person was a blockhead, so he couldn't help but get used to it. So he said with a cold expression and unchanged tone:

"Of course there are many things I want to ask, but there is no need to ask them now. I didn't ask you to come to the palace to talk about these things."

Qi Yunjin paused, then spoke again, getting straight to the point and asking, "Are there any clues about the Ye Mansion's affairs now?"

Gu Junqing raised her eyebrows and looked at the emperor who suddenly had a serious expression. She thought to herself, this frown is really serious, but she asked in return, "What does the emperor want to know?"

Qi Yunjin didn't expect to get such an answer from Gu Junqing. She was stunned for a moment, then she turned sideways to look at her and asked:

"Have you found the mastermind behind the birthday banquet for Lord Ye?"

Otherwise why would he be so sure and ask him whatever he wants to know, saying such arrogant words.

Gu Junqing naturally understood the implication of Qi Yunjin's words, and also knew that what she had just said was inappropriate, so she added:

"It's impossible to know the whole story, but I can tell you a little bit about it. As for the mastermind behind it, there is no direct evidence, so we can only speculate."

"Oh? In that case, tell me what you know now. I'm listening."

Qi Yunjin looked at Gu Junqing curiously, with some interest in his eyes. After he finished speaking, he returned to the small couch where he had been sitting before, then bent down and sat back.

Since the emperor became interested, Gu Junqing naturally did not hesitate any longer and told him the news he had previously learned from Ye Er.

She slowly said, "The clue I got from the servants of the Ye Mansion is that Ye Shasi, the younger brother of the Ye Guogong Mansion, was the accomplice who helped the murderer escape the pursuit of the guards of the Ye Mansion. At the same time, he also had contact with the mastermind behind the murderer, but it was only a written contact. The two parties have never met, but he has met the murderer several times."

Having said this, Gu Junqing looked up at Qi Yunjin and saw him nodding and looking at her, as if waiting for her to continue. So Gu Junqing coughed lightly and continued:

"Except Ye Er, everyone else who knew what the murderer looked like was killed by the murderer. So after helping the murderer escape, Ye Er, the only one who knew what the murderer looked like, stayed in his yard and seldom came out until he got a chance to escape a few days ago. He also used a trick to make us think that he was two cities away from the capital, but he was actually wandering around the capital."

At this point, Gu Junqing found it interesting and couldn't help but smile. With a hint of amusement, he said with a smile: "It was really a coincidence that Ye Er was found near the outskirts of the capital. It was the guards that Ye Laoguogong had placed there that discovered Ye Er and others..."

Gu Junqing still curled her lips and smiled faintly. Qi Yunjin, who was sitting opposite her and looking at her, saw her cold and playful smile, and a hint of dark light flashed in his eyes, which disappeared in an instant.

He couldn't help but curl his lips as well. Gu Junqing looked at her and thought that the emperor was thinking the same thing as her and was laughing at Ye Er's unfortunate appearance.

"Then what?"

Qi Yunjin asked back.

He seemed to be very interested in the clues they got.

Seeing this, Gu Junqing couldn't help but feel a strange sense of satisfaction in her heart, so she spoke more enthusiastically and even told everyone who she speculated was the mastermind behind the scenes.

Seeing Qi Yunjin raised his eyebrows and seemed quite surprised, Gu Junqing pursed her lips and suddenly asked about something she had missed before, so she asked: "From the emperor's expression earlier, it seemed that he wanted to say something to me? What did the emperor want to say to me?"

Seeing Qi Yunjin's expression was even more surprised than before, Gu Junqing pursed his lips, thinking that he had said something wrong and was thinking about saying something to make amends.

However, the emperor seemed to be tired of the chaise longue. He stood up straight, then looked straight at the small corner near her. He turned a few steps and walked to her side, arm against arm. The distance between his body and hers was less than a palm's distance. As long as one of them accidentally moved towards the other, the two could have direct physical contact.

Gu Junqing was not used to the close distance, so his expression and body were a little stiff, his eyes staring straight at the ground, his ears moving slightly, and he waited quietly for Qi Yunjin's next answer.

Seeing this, Qi Yunjin, who had been observing Gu Junqing's expression, lowered his head to hide the smile that flashed across his eyes. Then he raised his head again and moved a little closer to her without making a sound. He continued to talk, trying his best to attract Gu Junqing's attention.

She couldn't let him find out that he was sneaking up on her. She was so timid, what if she was scared away by accident?

"What I wanted to say was similar to what you said, but as for the mastermind behind this, as far as I know, it was someone else."

As soon as he finished speaking, as expected, he saw Gu Junqing staring at him blankly. Qi Yunjin laughed and blinked his left eye slightly, which made Gu Junqing's eyes wander. Then he heard the emperor ask, "Why? Don't you believe what I said? You haven't heard who I'm talking about yet. There's no need to deny it in a hurry."

Gu Junqing came back to his senses and smiled awkwardly. He really didn't expect that the emperor would notice at a glance that he was being too stubborn and didn't really believe what he said.

Fortunately, the emperor did not care about this little thing and continued to say what he had said before. He said in a deep voice: "The mastermind behind this has nothing to do with the Shen and Yu families. These two great families have no intention of taking action at the banquet hosted by Old Duke Ye..."
